New Pinebook Pro - no sound

You might find it easier to simply rename the rock user.

    Actually,  should I do both ?

   one to correct the sound,    the second for the user account ?

My wild guess is that the newly created user is missing some groups privileges as the user rock.

Here is what I found from my pbp:

Code:

rock@Debian-Desktop:~$ id rock
uid=1000(rock) gid=1000(rock) groups=1000(rock),4(adm),27(sudo),29(audio),44(video),46(plugdev),106(input),111(ssh)

rock@Debian-Desktop:~$ cat /etc/group | grep rock
adm:x:4:rock
sudo:x:27:rock
audio:x:29:rock,pulse
video:x:44:rock
plugdev:x:46:rock
input:x:106:rock
ssh:x:111:rock
rock:x:1000:

So in order to have the same user profile as the user rock, one has to add those groups as secondary group to the newly created user.

For example, if I created a new user as newuser, I have to do the following:

Code:

$ sudo usermod -a -G adm, sudo, audio, video, plugdev, input, ssh newuser

or add them one by one

Code:

$ sudo groupmod -a -G adm newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G sudo newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G audio newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G video newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G plugdev newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G input newuser
$ sudo groupmod -a -G ssh newuser

or some people would like to use the adduser command instead

Code:

$ sudo adduser newuser adm
$ sudo adduser newuser sudo
$ sudo adduser newuser audio
$ sudo adduser newuser video
$ sudo adduser newuser plugdev
$ sudo adduser newuser input
$ sudo adduser newuser ssh
